Description

Hello once again. I've been trying to use one of the scripts for these discussions but it has me ctrl left click twice to open a file but the issue is every time I ctrl left click it open a new tab in trilium filling it up with tabs. I tried searching for it in the shortcuts options but can't find the associated short cut. I found ctrl left but it doesn't seem to effect that command.

There isn't a way to disable or change the Ctrl+Left Click behavior for opening a new tab in Trilium Notes. This shortcut is hardcoded and not listed in the configurable shortcuts, so it can't be changed through the UI or configuration files. The documentation confirms this is the intended default behavior and there are no workarounds or settings to disable it at this time Trilium Wiki: Keyboard Shortcuts.

@whyeverythingsohard , @dosu is right, the Ctrl+click behaviour is not configurable since it's a standard way to handle links.
If the script you're having requires Ctrl+Click, then I would say it's a problem with the script you're using.

That's correct—Ctrl+Click opening a new tab is hardcoded in Trilium and can't be disabled or changed through shortcuts or settings. This matches standard link handling in many apps and is confirmed in the documentation and support threads (source, keyboard shortcuts). If a script relies on Ctrl+Click, it may need to be adjusted to avoid this conflict, since Trilium doesn't provide a way to remap or disable this behavior.
